-- But why risk it? The chances of something negative happening are roughly the same as the chances of something positive, and on top of that, you also waste a star... Gambling doesn't lead to anything good. You might accidentally lose your magic, you might stop feeling the benefits of food, you might lose the ability to move due to your speed being reduced to zero, the drum might break... These are just the most critical things, and there are plenty of other ways to get negative effects for no reason... I think you're too valuable an employee for this, and wasting a star is inefficient. Perhaps it would make sense for some alchemist to do it, in order to learn recipes.
With all this back-and-forth, they probably looked strange, but I'm sorry, Nayk...
